Class 5 - Judges Critique:

Ch Powerbulmas Lord Tomas |
A
superb example of the breed. Excellent size , bone and
construction, demonstrating the epitome of balance and type.
This dog has almost everything that a bullmastiff should
have, demonstrating excellent movement with real drive and
purpose. Head shape is perfect without any exaggeration of
wrinkle or size, this coupled with excellent ear placement
gave him a picture book expression. The overall symmetry of
the dog made him hard to ignore and it is clear that he has a
huge amount to offer the breed. Perhaps the best compliment I
can give him is to say how much I would like this dog to be
here in the UK as he really is a dog that would take top
honours in any country. |

Class 5a - Judges critique:
1st: Oma’s -
Costog Hidcotes Treasure |
A
very attractive fawn bitch of quality, excellent pigmentation
with good dark eye, excellent head shape with good strong
under jaw. Good reach of neck which has such a significant
affect on any Bullmastiffs appearance. Level topline nice
strong rear end which she used to good effect when moving. Not
the largest Bullmastiff shown under me but well within the
standard. |

2nd:
Hodgett’s - Saturnbrook Eight Below |
A
good size bitch of exceptional temperament. Good head shape,
with good overall mouth, nice wide chest with depth of brisket
to match. Angulation and overall balance was very good and
moved really well on the day. |
|
3rd:
Abela's - Powerbulmas Angelica |
Good strong honest bitch, well wrinkled with a good head and
body shape, nice overall balance. Angulation was very good
although topline a little variable on the move. Nice
pigmentation and plenty of substance. A lot to like about this
bitch.
